Revise Nursing Home restrictions Now

Since the beginning of the pandemic Nursing Home Patients have not been able to see their loved ones. Now that 99% of the residents have received their second vaccine for COVID months ago the rules should change. They have been imprisoned in their rooms for over a year !!!! I have a sister in a Nursing home her health and mental wellbeing is declining and I still can't see her because the workers in the Nursing Home are not required to have the vaccine. I see why that would be hard to make them all get vaccinated, but why should these people suffer as a result. I feel that anyone that is fully vaccinated should be able to see their loved one even if there was a COVID positive worker, how is it safer for a worker that isn't vaccinated to be treating these patients than a visitor that has been fully vaccinated to visit. My sister has not even been outside since July 2020, this is not healthy and the rules desperately need to change,
